Often signposts, such as real estate signposts, are inserted into the ground and include a horizontal member with a sign hanging from the horizontal member, which creates unequal loading so that after time, the sign often tilts to the side of the horizontal member. Wind and other forces can also loosen the signpost so that the signpost will tilt to one side. The signpost may also rotate, which is often undesirable. In addition, the signpost can come loose due to wind, people hitting the sign, etc.
